As the #NIH slashes funding for research into #Alzheimer's, #cancer, #COVID & #diseases that inflict pain & suffering, I'm heartbroken & furious. #Early-onset Alzheimer's took my father away from me &, more importantly, himself. Why would anyone in their right mind (right, the mind of the #fascist is almost incomprehensible) do such a thing? If nothing else, a selfish viewpt. says this is idiocy. These cuts are meant to bring us to our knees. Let's resist (& sue them into oblivion).

Massive, Unarchivable #Datasets of #Cancer, #Covid, #HIV and #Alzheimer's Research Could Be Lost Forever
Days before RFK announced 10,000 #HHS staffers would lose their jobs, a message appeared on #NIH research repository sites saying they were "under review." Unlike other government datasets or web pages, downloading or otherwise archiving NIH data often requires a Data Use Agreement between a researcher institution and the agency.

Gevolgen ontslagen @utwente gaan verder dan alleen banenverlies: hoogleraren doen hun verhaal

De bezuinigingsoperatie heeft volgens beide hoogleraren veel grotere gevolgen, die ook lopende onderzoeken naar ziekten als #Parkinson en #Alzheimer treffen.

Oost · Gevolgen ontslagen Universiteit Twente gaan verder dan alleen banenverlies: hoogleraren doen hun verhaalHoogleraar Kerensa Broersen werkt veertien jaar voor Universiteit Twente als ze in februari te horen krijgt dat ze één van de 46 ontslagen medewerkers is van de faculteit Technische Natuurwetenschappen (TNW). Ook hoogleraar Jeroen Cornelissen moet het veld ruimen, na zestien jaar dienstverband. Een persoonlijk drama natuurlijk, maar dat niet alleen. De bezuinigingsoperatie heeft volgens beide hoogleraren veel grotere gevolgen, die ook lopende onderzoeken naar ziekten als Parkinson en Alzheimer treffen.

These are some #NIH grants that have been canceled. Pediatric research? #Alzheimer's? #Covid? Pregnancy & assault? If anyone thinks they aren't affected by #RFK's idiocy, they are living in Lala land.

In this link, researchers describe the work, its benefits, & the impact of its termination. Read it & weep & then write, call, vote, protest -- but don't back down! If anyone thinks it's happening to "them" & not you, think again.

Could the #Shingles Vaccine help to prevent Dementia?

Neurotropic herpesviruses may be implicated in the development of #Dementia.

This study found that the zoster #vaccine reduced the probability of a new dementia diagnosis by approximately one-fifth over a seven-year follow-up period.

Despite the enormous health and economic impacts of #Alzheimer’s disease, effective treatments and preventative measures are lacking.

Emerging evidence such as this suggests that viruses in the herpes family that target and affect the nervous system might be involved in the development of Alzheimer’s disease.
